Hardly a week goes by without reading in the legal press that yet another senior high-flier has been headhunted by a new firm or organisation. Headhunting is now the preferred method of recruitment for law firms searching for partners and senior level assistants. Instead of passively waiting for the ideal CV to land on their desks, law firms have learned from the US that if you want something, you have to go out and get it.
Whether you are looking to move in the immediate future or are relatively comfortable at your current firm but prudently keeping an ear to the ground for future reference, it makes sense to be in contact with professional headhunters who will be able to keep you fully informed so that you make the best decision when the time is right to move onwards and upwards.
